Comments:- Recording of a performance at the Salzburg Festival (27 July 1950). According toHunt part of the Olympic version derives from a 1953 performance (John Hunt «The Furtwängler Sound» 5th Edition, 1996, p.72); The recording on EJS 419 is probably from a different performance (See «EJS Discography» p.398, «More EJS» pp.604-605). The Melodram LPs are advertized in GRAMOPHONE December 1983 p.739 and the Discocorp LPs are (were?) listed in Parnassus Records' online catalogue
